Continuing my streak of prime seats on my flights, I sat next to two empty seats on my Rwandair flight to Kigali, and I also got free wine and coffee. And a meal. For an hour flight. Fantastic. Foreign airlines > American airlines, by a wide margin.

As the plane descended into Rwanda, the sun was doing the same. It was gorgeous to see, and interesting to note how different the landscape is from Kenya given the fact they're pretty close together geographically.

The plane was about an hour late to land. With my layover scheduled only as an hour and a half, the possibility for a lot of trouble seemed pretty high. Luckily, the Kigali airport is about the size of an elementary school, and getting from the arrival to transfer terminal was about 50 steps. But I had to go through security again, and after downing about a half bottle of wine on the hour flight, with little water during the day, I was feeling pretty warm in my head.
